IMO the whistler mod in black looks great on these cars b/c the weather stripping is so gaudy that the black paint makes it blend in more with the rest of the headlight and the bumper. Doing this mod in any other color makes the black weather stripping stand out..

I sort of agree, BUT any color that is not black will make that weather stripping stand out, which is why it looks strange with any other color.. Our headlights just aren't as flush as C6 headlights to pull it off IMO

Alot of cars these days come with some sort of black headlight. That is why the whistlers look so good black. It looks more natural... Add a projector and you're golden like a shower.

This is how I did mine, but on a black Z. I didn't realize until a few minutes ago that the "full" whistler mod includes the fluted area. Red there would just be too over the top for me.
